[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Toss them.

I have the same issue with a friend who is always buying me sweets. Last week she dropped a cake off at my house. It didn't even go inside the house, I threw it in the car and tossed it in the dumpster at work. [/quote]

Geez, if you were all the way at work, you could have at least offered it to your co-workers. That seems wasteful. :oops: [/quote]

Thought about it, but realized I’d probably be putting people in the same position I was in: sabotaging efforts at being healthy with crappy junk food. I have a hard time resisting treats and know others are in the same position, it was a nasty grocery store cake, no one was missing out on anything. Not worth the sugar/saturated fat/calories.

NP. There is nothing “healthy” about extremes in either direction. If you’re so extreme with your diet that the mere sight or presence of a plate of cookies sends you into panic mode, you need to work on that and get real with it. A healthy lifestyle is one where you can go out to dinner, attend a conference or a large meeting with catered food, go to someone’s party, or cook for yourself and feel comfortable and confident in all of those situations. If a plate of cookies sends you into binge mode, you’ve got food issues that go far beyond food choices and exercising.

That being said, grocery store cake is nasty. But I have no problem just…not eating it. And my husband might have one or two pieces, and then if it’s not going anywhere, we can trash it. But acting like a cake is a ticking time bomb for yourself or others is extreme and unhealthy.[/quote]
